The Warriors refuse to give up Klay Thompson but Cleveland is ready and willing to part with Andrew Wiggins? Sigh. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Exactly. Wiggins signing his rookie deal doesn't guarantee anything.

I still don't see why Philadelphia never moved to bring Fredette in. I think that would have been a great fit.

I guess no Jimmer in Phoenix, then. Yet.

He certainly doesn't think Love is all you need.

On the old board, someone (Ladmo maybe?) was so into getting fredette and that he was going to be a major star for us, that they suggested that we change the name to jimmer.net or something like that. Lol.

Channing Frye thinks the hometown free-agent discount is "absolutely ridiculous"

It's cool. You don't need to explain yourself, Channing. Enjoy Florida.

He seems genuinely hurt that we did not do everything we could to keep him. I will miss the guy, but honestly if another team was willing to offer him 4/$32, it's best for all sides for him to take it and leave. We can't pay him that, and he would be silly to turn down that huge paycheck at this stage of his career. I wish him the best. Why does he have to be so bent out of shape about it?

He's probably just answering questions honestly, from a media with an agenda... He obviously loves Phoenix and wanted to be here, and that stands out a lot more from his statements, IMO, then any bit of whining or justifying. I'm sure if we offered him something fair with a *no trade clause* he may have taken it. His whole thing is, its a business, why take a discount to stay, when there is no guarantee that you will actually get to stay?

A no trade clause for Channing Frye? You are governed by sentiment, P219.

He didn't say the Suns should have offered it, just that he thinks Frye would have taken it.
